Platelets, RBC about mimic-code

[alistairewj]

Almost certainly the appropriate choice is to use the IOEVENTS table. This will tell you when the blood was given (to the hour) and the amount. You can search the D_ITEMS table for the ITEMID associated with transfusions, such as "FFP", "RBC", etc. If you come up with a list of these ITEMID values we would welcome it as a contribution to the documentation.

The most common by total volume (in my analyses) ITEMID codes for platelets or RBC are:
String description: ITEMID
Packed Red Blood Cells: 225168
Packed RBC's: 30001 or just 1 in the IOEVENTS table (see my currently open issue #9 )
Platelets: 225170
OR Packed RBC Intake: 226368
Platelets: 30006 or just 6
OR Platelet Intake: 226369
OR Packed RBC's: 30104 or just 104

This is far from a complete list but appear to be the most common from my subgroup.
